POWDER ROOM
WITH PERSPECTIVE
As part of an entire house remodel including an addition, the powder room was relocated to better utilize the space, optimize function, and delight the senses. The original powder room was incorporated into a new bedroom. The new powder room occupies a portion of space that was the former office. The office entrance was 12” below the hall so part of the modification required raising the floor to be level with the hall. The remaining office space became part of the master suite.
